Winning Chess Openings (Winning Chess)
Yasser Seirawan
Microsoft Pr, 1999
The Best Openings Book
I never really got good at chess until I started focusing first on a simple e4 e5 with the relative strength of second moves and then relative strength of third moves and looked at it as a tree with branches in every direction. It makes sense not to go on to d4 d5 ...

Microsoft Office 97 Visual Basic Programmer's Guide (Microsoft Professional Editions Series)
Microsoft Pr, 1997
When I thought it was impossible,..... I thought wrong!
An excellent book. I used it primarily for my Word Application that automatically creates a report from existing Access97 Database. What could not be accomplished using MailMerge had to be done using DAO and this book was definitely a gem. I doubt I could have ...

Quick Course in Microsoft Excel 2000 (Quick Course)
Joyce Cox, Christina Dudley, ...
Microsoft Pr, 1999
An excellent introductory tutorial.
I had tried reading through the entire list of Excel tutorials at the local library. All of them were disappointing to me, as they spent so much time extolling the glories of Excel that they never stopped to tell you what Excel was actually good for! And then they ...

Running Ms-DOS
Van Wolverton
Microsoft Pr, 1993
Excellent
This is an excellent book I salvaged from a yard sale. Even though it is old, it is the best book I have ever read on batch files. The command reference is about 5 times as detailed as MS-DOS help.

After the Gold Rush: Creating a True Profession of Software Engineering (Best Practices)
Steve McConnell
Microsoft Pr, 1999
Software Engineering as a REAL Profession?
The Tar Pit. Software Dinosaurs. Fool's Gold. Orphans Preferred. Software Engineering is Not Computer Science. These are just a few of the chapter titles from Steve McConnell's latest book, After the Gold Rush. Perusing the table of contents gives one the impression ...

Learn Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Now (Learn Now)
Chuck Sphar
Microsoft Pr, 1999
Best Starter VC++ Book
I have really liked the way the author Chuck Sphar actually goes about creating the MyDraw Application right from scratch. The first 200 pages of the book teach C++, and the other 500 teach VC++, concentrating on MFC. A real good book to buy.

GREAT EXAMPLES

Great information from the source
With so many books on Office 2000 out there it's hard to know which one to buy, especially when you're buying online. One deciding factor can be the author's background, if you're fortunate enough to know it. If you don't know David let me tell you there's no one more ...

The Official Microsoft Html Help Authoring Kit: Understanding, Creating, and Migrating to Microsoft Html Help ...
Steve Wexler
Microsoft Pr, 1998
The book is about as good as the HTML Help Authoring Kit
This book suffers from shortcomings, but to be fair, so does Microsoft's HTML Help SDK. The SDK suffers from a sloppy user interface, modal windows that should be modeless, some unbelievable bugs, etc., and you can see that it has made the book less useful than it ...

great book for those that already know the workings of com/dcom, but want a better understanding of how things work under the hood (and way under the hood). this book is not VC++ 6.0 or ATL3.0 oriented - but you'll need to be pretty proficient in both or this is not ...
